Insights From Analysts:
As the S&amp;P 500 index recovered and it was just 2.99% lower than its all-time high of 6,147.43 points, Subu Trade shares data in an X post suggesting that the index tends to rally for 2-12 months after notching such &#8220;quick recoveries.&#8221;
Last time the S&amp;P 500 recovered from -18% to -3% within 50 days, it returned 20.43% on average after one year and 4.86% after three months.
Also, the data shows that the index was higher than 100% of the time after nine months and a year.
&#8220;These quick recoveries tend to see stocks rally more over the next 3-12 months. Momentum is strong,&#8221; the X post stated.

Meanwhile, analysts at BlackRock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45512310/blackrock-bets-on-inflation-goes-overweight-inflation-linked-bonds-amid-us-fiscal-sustainability-challenge-heres-a-list-of-etfs-investors-can-consider">bet on rising inflation</a> by being "overweight" on the inflation-linked bonds. 
This strategic shift is to mitigate risks stemming from "persistent inflation pressure" and growing concerns over the sustainability of U.S. government finances.
The note also highlighted how the U.S. debt sustainability relies on large and steady funding by foreign investors.
"The downgrade reinforces the U.S. fiscal sustainability challenge that we've long flagged, especially persistent U.S. budget deficits at a time when higher interest rates are boosting debt servicing costs. If these dynamics dent the confidence of foreign bond holders, rising term premium could push up bond yields and debt servicing costs even more," explained BlackRock in its note.
As a result, BlackRock&#8217;s current strategy now anticipates higher term premiums for U.S. Treasuries and ongoing inflation.
"That&#8217;s why our starting point also includes our expectation of rising term premium for U.S. Treasuries and persistent inflation pressure. We go overweight inflation-linked bonds and neutral global investment grade credit given wider spreads," the note stated.
Even though U.S. assets are still core to their portfolios, BlackRock&#8217;s shift into inflation-linked bonds highlights their proactive approach to counter looming fiscal and inflationary challenges.

Home Depot, Toll Brothers And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Tuesday

Palo Alto Networks Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>) is scheduled to report its fiscal third-quarter results on Tuesday, May 20.
The announcement will come amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst previews.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Cantor Fitzgerald On Palo Alto Networks</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58d11d3db85e93000188d7b9/jonathan-ruykhaver">Analyst Jonathan Ruykhaver</a> reiterated an Overweight rating and price target of $223.
Checks indicate that Palo Alto Networks will report mixed result for the fiscal third quarter, Ruykhaver said in a note. The consensus estimates for NNARR (net new annual recurring revenue) of around $260 million implies a 6% year-on-year decline, "which we view as conservative despite the mixed checks," he added.
The analyst expects Palo Alto Networks to report revenues at $2.285 and earnings of 79 cents per share, higher than consensus of $2.279 billion and 77 cents per share, respectively. "Partner feedback on large deal momentum is largely consistent with last quarter, which should support at least an in-line 4Q25 guide for RPO, which currently stands at 19%-20%," he further wrote.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Roth Capital Partners On Palo Alto Networks</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58ad8d48b85e930001f97170/robert-ohmes">Analyst</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58ad8d48b85e930001f97170/robert-ohmes"> Taz Koujalgi</a> maintained a Neutral rating and price target of $210.
Palo Alto Networks' revenues could fall short of the high end of the guidance range and management may not raise full-year NGS ARR (next-generation security annual recurring revenue) and RPO (remaining performance obligation) guidance, Koujalgi said.
"PANW's feedback improved from the end of March but was consistent with the end of January," the analyst wrote. Although feedback indicates large deals during the quarter, some of the pipeline deals that were expected to close in the fiscal fourth quarter could be pushed out to fiscal 2026, he further stated.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">DA Davidson On Palo Alto Networks</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/61152e71b4035700018afbc0/rudy-kessinger">Analyst Rudy Kessinger</a> reaffirmed a Buy rating and price target of $225.
Palo Alto Networks is likely to report "in-line to modestly ahead" quarterly results and reiterate its full-year guidance, Kessinger said. Although checks indicate weaker third-quarter sales, the company had "the strongest feedback out of all vendors," which are likely to report significant sequential declines, he added.
Although Palo Alto Networks may report a strong quarter, the upside could be less than in previous quarters and fail to drive the share price in the near term, the analyst stated. "Total RPO growth &amp; CRPO growth could actually result in a negative near-term reaction in our view," he further wrote.
PANW Price Action: Shares of Palo Alto Networks had declined slightly by 0.021% to $192.94 at the time of publication on Monday.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Markets rallied hard on Monday as the US/China trade war was put on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45368500/nasdaq-jumps-over-4-following-us-china-tariff-truce-investor-sentiment-improves-as-fear-index-remains-in-greed-zone">90-day timeout</a>. While tariffs of up to 30% remain in place on a large percentage of Chinese imports, the most crippling ones were removed, and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45367206/sp-500-rallies-over-3-on-us-china-90-day-tariff-truce-but-experts-warn-it-doesnt-guarantee-a-complete-resolution-of-the-trade-war">S&amp;P 500 jumped</a> more than 3%.
But the tariff reset is not the only thing boosting markets lately. The tech sector has been quietly rallying as strong earnings have helped large-cap firms outperform the rest of the market. Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) reported strong Q1 earnings, including an impressive EPS number from META that came in 20% higher than expectations. Both stocks jumped following their reports, with MSFT leaping 10% and closing above $435 for the first time since January.
Large-cap tech has allowed the NASDAQ to comfortably outperform the S&amp;P 500 over the last couple of weeks. And if recent earnings and capex spending plans are any indication, the sector will continue to fuel the next leg of any potential market rally.
Here are four large tech stocks with momentum after earnings, pushing the stocks higher and higher.
Each stock has a highly anticipated conference call and a Benzinga Edge Momentum Score of at least 80.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Meta Platforms Inc.&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Momentum Score: 82.82
Meta Platforms shares soared in February, riding a DiMaggio-esque streak of 20 consecutive up days to a new all-time high above $740 per share. However, a steep correction followed the impressive winning streak, and shares were back under $500 by the third week of April. But now, with tariff turbulence (maybe) in the rearview, earnings could become the focus, and META's quarter surpassed all expectations.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfqovRUVY8Ty3Ld-YaYe2Cr_O7jJtmSCfogzLpJubF4KZPfst_PF0DVDUgAflThpXQisRETSRYyOIzXFK-BBfDmPJRQnlu5uor0fhVTidyNSbo1gtjNi_sEVs54uKemtd7IviXu_g?key=CqqicioIG6xvemY45IDXvQ" alt="" /></figure>
On April 30, META reported Q1 EPS of $6.43 and revenue of $42.31B, handily surpassing analyst estimates, including a nearly 22% upside EPS beat. The company earned $16.64B in net income, a year-over-year increase of almost 35%. Profit margins also came in 15% higher than the previous year. META earns a spot on our list over MSFT because we believe there's more short-term upside in META shares, especially if the 50-day SMA and 200-day SMA continue converging. Based on 43 analyst reports, META shares are a consensus Buy with an average price target of $704, indicating 10% more potential upside from current levels.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Netflix Inc.&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Momentum Score: 96.14
Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) is the biggest winner in the streaming wars, with a dominant market share amongst TV viewers and new forays into live sports and entertainment. The stock dipped under $200 per share in June 2022 at the peak of the bear market but now sits above $1100, a remarkable advance of more than 500% in less than three years. The company reported solid earnings on April 17, posting a modest revenue beat but an EPS figure 15% higher than analyst expectations.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfxM1390q2oirRmXLx_XDiDnCvY13K0Z9FiyjvylD8MseSxDirzWvoEWDgmCmIU4cPNqe9DHmgXbZa6UdjHpCSZmzKsyqt1K9dotPlS5t4UJf4reNX8EKa6xt0UUwVvqmZsy3fD?key=CqqicioIG6xvemY45IDXvQ" alt="" /></figure>
The $10.54 billion in revenue is still the most Netflix has ever done in a quarter, and the report was the fifth straight top and bottom line beat for the streaming giant. The stock also has strong technical signals, trading firmly above the 50-day and 200-day SMAs after bouncing off the 200-day SMA in early April. The company projects EPS of $7.04 and revenue of $11.04 billion in Q2 2025, and it received 11 price target boosts from analysts following the Q1 report. A recent oversold reading on the RSI triggered a short selloff, which could represent a good entry point for new investors.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Uber Technologies Inc.&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Momentum Score: 85.44
Uber (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NASDAQ">UBER</a>) has been on a long path to profitability. Still, the company reported positive income in Q2 2023 and has made money in seven of the eight quarterly reports since then. Its Q1 2025 report was a serious improvement over Q4 2024, with EPS beating analyst expectations by more than 65% (negating a slight miss on revenue). One big positive has been the Uber One subscription service, which experienced 60% year-over-year growth and provides the company with a new model for customer retention. The stock is now up more than 44% year-to-date, including a 20% ascent in the last month.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcBY_VERnoIbSezsCuMBbzBMwQXdrjpq9Muj-OJ07iz92PScoQUtIAQ9k7qRIKdNcHaUvbTY2Mxcr30DXwsxPjZ8nRTstD4ySGabCSm0wziIFGmocv1eDV6-uKk2KOAwL_NQvJqxQ?key=CqqicioIG6xvemY45IDXvQ" alt="" /></figure>
UBER shares saw a Golden Cross form in March as the 50-day SMA crossed over the 200-day SMA, but the bullish momentum didn't kick in until the initial tariff pause on April 9. The momentum continued following the May 7 earnings report. Today, the stock trades comfortably above its 50- and 200-day SMAs. One possible trap to watch is on the RSI, where the reading approaches the overbought threshold of 70. However, Uber appears now to have fundamental and technical tailwinds at its back, and analysts remain bullish with a consensus Buy rating based on 34 research reports.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Palo Alto Networks&nbsp;</h2>
Benzinga Edge Momentum Score: 98.30
One of the highest momentum scores belongs to Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>), a favorite during the post-COVID bull market. The stock also didn't suffer as hard as the rest of the tech sector during the 2022 bear market and has posted an overall gain of more than 400% in the last five years. While its earnings for Q1 haven't been released yet, the stock is showing signs of more upside ahead.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfOAyy2f-3CT4LiIyJmf3RarBt0dWe-PtJKFFUOs3Kra1038_v6USoHnFi2Y_FUcHP2T4Vw5CaHNud_fDDp0kjuzGtIIvwSxyo2d0XdEbCkRzYwEf8N5clZOFRW25bAuSYfbl7O?key=CqqicioIG6xvemY45IDXvQ" alt="" /></figure>
Palo Alto Networks doesn't report earnings until May 20, but investors appear to be positioning themselves for positive numbers. The 10-day exponential MA recently crossed the 20-day exponential MA, indicating short-term momentum brewing (EMAs give more weight to recent prices than SMAs). According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45357613/china-tariff-de-escalation-biggest-winners-include-tesla-apple-new-tech-highs-back-on-the-table-now-for-2025">Wedbush</a>, cybersecurity stocks could be a group that sees outsized gains after the reduction of the China tariffs. Palo Alto Networks reported a top and bottom line beat for its Q4 2024 report; analysts expect an EPS of 0.77 and revenue of $2.28B for Q1 2025. The stock is rated a consensus Buy based on 43 analyst reports, with an average price target of $311, which indicates an upside potential of more than 35%.

4 Tech Stocks With Huge Earnings Momentum

An agreement by the U.S. and China to lower tariff amounts could send technology stocks to new highs, according to a well-known sector analyst.
What Happened: The U.S. is lowering its tariff on goods imported from China from 145% to 30%, while China has agreed to lower its tariff on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%. Both moves are temporarily <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45347089/wall-street-rips-higher-as-tariff-truce-halts-us-china-economic-escalation">in place for 90 days</a>.
The deal announced Monday morning came after a series of weekend negotiations between the two countries. 
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives discussed the winners in the tech industry in an interview <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-05-12/us-china-tariff-pause-is-dream-scenario-for-tech-ives-video?sref=TBDibEcD">with</a> Bloomberg.
The Big Winners: Ives highlighted Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) as one of the biggest winners in the technology sector on the heels of the tariff news.
"It puts new tech highs back on the table now for 2025," Ives said.
Ives said tariffs have been the front and center story for Apple with the company hedging and saying it would shift production to India. With the news, Ives said this could slow down the shift to India for the iPhone 17 with China getting the vast majority of the production volume.
"There was a window here where this needed to change."
Ives said the 30% tariff could go lower in the future to a 15% to 20% range, something that might start to get baked into stock prices.
"It's a game changer."

Ives said Apple has "pricing power to an extent" and the tariff news still gives the company the flexibility to raise prices if it wants.
The analyst said Apple's AI strategy really needs to produce the iPhone 17 because a large portion of the company's installed base looking to upgrade phones in the next two to three years.
"This puts that key bull case back on the table."
The other big winner named by Ives from the China tariff news is Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
"Tesla's going to be a huge beneficiary in terms of what we see in this de-escalation of the U.S., China tariffs," Ives told CNBC.
During his interview with Bloomberg, Ives was asked about Tesla CEO Elon Musk's whereabouts after his time spent in the White House was viewed as a distraction to many.
"Thankfully not in the White House," Ives said of Musk's whereabouts.
Ives said Musk is back at Tesla driving the company's autonomy strategy ahead of a robotaxi launch in June.
"It speaks to why Tesla is up. You need your leader back. They got their biggest asset back."
Ives said investors will look back and view this as a "pivotal moment for the Tesla story."
Other Winners: During a CNBC interview, Ives said the trade progress between China and the U.S. is a positive for many stocks in the technology sector.
"If you are a tech investor, this is a dream scenario," Ives said.
Ives said the tariff change could see NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) as a big winner.
"They are going to be one especially given the China tariffs."
Ives also named Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) as companies that the tariff news could be bullish for.
A slide shared during Ives&#8217; discussion about Tesla being a big winner also showed cybersecurity stock picks from Wedbush. That slide included Palo Alto Networks Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>), CrowdStrike Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>), Zscaler Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>), CyberArk Software Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CYBR#NASDAQ">CYBR</a>) and Check Point Software Technologies Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHKP#NASDAQ">CHKP</a>).

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.
